Purchase Barbie Basic # 15!

#15 Barbie Basics!I purchased Barbie Basics #15 with hopes of redoing
him soon. He is a very cute guy but first thing I’ll have
to do is find him a new body! I can’t stand those poser
MM bodies of the Barbie Basics dolls! Come on Mattel,
get it together! Make the Basics with articulation will ya!

I am thinking about make him Asian. I already have this
face as a blond. I saw him as an OOAK Asian doll on the
doll page. I also so him redone as a Johnny Depp lookalike
too! I really liked them both. I will be looking for the right
outfits too. When he is done I will post him. Here
are a few pictures for now!

I haven't done anything with mine either. Maybe seeing yours will inspire me to get to it. Doubtful, but one can hope. I need to search .... Ding Ding Ding. Sorry about that, but as I was typing, the answer to my body issue came to mind. I've been body swapping my girls, so why not body swap my guys the same way? That will keep me from needing to buy a body right away. Whew, glad that is resolved. He may actually get some play time now.

I have a headless fashionista body sitting right here next to my computer. He doesn't work as well as I would like for Model 15. His legs don't open and he doesn't sit upright. I will be throwing my model 15 on my one of my Harley Davidson bodies when I need to use him, then swap back when I need the Harley doll. Just easier for me since I can swap heads in about 30 sec now.

About Me

I am a collector of Black Barbie dolls, Barbie dolls, fashion dolls and action figures. I had a large doll collection as a child that even included a black Francie and a Julia doll. Once I became older, I still loved dolls but didn’t play with them as much. One day, in a cleaning fit, my mother trashed all my dolls.
I had not thought much about Barbie and the dolls I had for a long time. Then one holiday season I worked part-time stocking the Barbie isles in the old Kiddie City in Center City Philadelphia. I saw all the wonderful new Barbie dolls and the wonderful fashion dolls that were for sale. My love for Barbie was back! Now… I’m trying to replace the dolls I have lost and am adding a few new friends along the way. I have replaced my Julia. She is my favorite!! I don’t think I can afford an original black Francie yet. Maybe one day soon! I have a reproduction. There are some really great dolls out there. Join me on my journey to find them and have some doll fun! For more about my interest, check out this link:http://i-luv-dolls.blogspot.com/2012/05/my-interview-answers.html
